Malloy Should Release Election Documents

The Courant deserves praise for its in-depth coverage of the ban on state contractor contributions in Connecticut elections [June 19, editorial, "Democrats Try To Dodge Campaign Spending Limits, Probe”].

Republicans want Gov. Dannel P. Malloy to own up to his commitment to transparency. After all, the governor once said, “I'm 100 percent committed to having anadministration that is open, transparent and accessible.”

Instead, he has blocked clean elections and now he is trying to block transparency regarding his own re-election campaign. Gov. Malloy should do the right thing and release the documents subpoenaed by the State Election Enforcement Commission.
